I found something interesting about the nonfeatured hubs which are the ones with a blank space next to them on the right side of accounts page while others have a black mark to show they are featured. You can find the nonfeatured with the search engine, but this is what HP has done.
I am using bogus HP titles by the way
Featured: How to Teach Your Cat To Read
Now pretend that above is now a nonfeatured hub.
Put in search engine: How to Teach Your Cat To Read-your name-hub pages
Rather than the title to come up as it is, they tack on name of hubber and of course hub pages to the title.
Linda, does the link go to the hub, or does it go to the Hubber's profile page?
Millionaire: I tried 2 ways. One went to the profile page. I simply put title and added my name to search bar which brought me to my profile page.
But, when I put the title such as How To Teach Your Cat To Read Hub Pages it brought up the hub like this in the main headline that shows up goes like this
How To Teach Your Cat To Read-Linda Smith1-Hub Pages
But, if you just put the title in, or keywords as if you are searching for information, the hub that was once on the first page, you cannot find it.

If a hub is not featured does that mean that it doesn't get any search engine traffic from Google or other search engines?

I am just curious, all 92 hubs of mine are featured. In your opinion, should one delete (although Featured) any hubs where the score on a particular hub has eventually dropped way down from when it was initially high at one point? Or would it be better to just unpublish and later...

Does anyone else feel like they don't have much incentive to edit non-featured hubs (or publish new ones) due to the QAP? My list of non-featured hubs has gradually been growing. I know I can edit them to get them re-considered, but it really doesn't seem worth my while to do it,...

I'm not asking about why hubs get featured or un-featured. I kind of know that.The issue is: I just did a category search in my hubs, and found that, out of 292 published hubs, 149 are unfeatured due to low traffic! That's a lot! Over half my articles! I don't have the time...

Can any one tell me why hundreds of my hubs that were Features have now gone to Not Featured (engagement) This is very upsetting. I have over 440 hubs and now most of them are Not featured.If anyone has a answer for this please tell me!

I saw a dramatic traffic drop today and went to notice that over 100 of my hubs are not featured. While I can understand some of my older ones published over 4 years ago were not that great, some of them were published just months ago and are engaging, have beautiful pictures and very few links....
